The four-legged robot was armed with an M72 shoulder-fired anti-tank rocket launcher in testing by the Marine Air-Ground Task Force Training Command and scientists with the Office of Naval Research.
That is a baaaaad idea.
I’m sorry.
Ewe disgust me.
Fuck yes.
Love it
Metal Gear?!
A weapon to surpass Metal Gear!
The robot in the picture looks like a Unitree Go1: https://www.unitree.com/en/go1/
This is remarkable because according to the Unitree website they are a Chinese company.HangZhou YuShu TECHNOLOGY CO.,LTD All Rights Reserved 浙ICP备17044557号 浙公网安备 33010802011921号
Probably because that’s an blindingly obvious Chinese knockoff of Boston Dynamics’ Spot. BD doesn’t want to sell weapons but the USMC still wanted to try out their ideas so they found a company with fewer ethics.
So, friendly fire incoming?
No beard no goat. This is a killer Robot dog.
It identifies as a goat. Please don’t misspecies it.
At first I was going to say I was surprised there were still any functional LAW’s in inventory, but then I remembered we were talking about the Corps.
Those things were probably army stock that got handed down to the national guard, then donated to the ANA, later recovered from ISIS, sat in the bottom of a ship for a couple years, then issued to the Marines.
Did they test it in the Goat Simulator first?
Nice choice reporting this nightmare fuel on Halloween.
